  SHARING TOGETHER

  Monday September 22, 2025 at 6:30 pm CST via Zoom 

  The National Danish-American Genealogical Society invites you to join us for an informal evening of networking with others interested in Danish and Danish-American genealogy. Share a recent success, show off a family heirloom, ask for help on a roadblock, and more. We'll go wherever the conversation leads us, but you are sure to come away with some great insights and hopefully will share some of your own. This event is free and open to the public.  To see other upcoming NDAGS events, learn about our one-of-a-kind newsletter, and more, please visit our website at: https://danishgenealogy.org/

  The U.S. and Canada share the longest international border in the world (approximately 5,500 miles or 8,900 km.

We’ll talk about when the tracking started, what has been recorded, and where records can be found, as well as why we care and what we can learn.
